Description Europe was caught unawares of the strength of the German Imperial Wehrmacht. And by mid-1943, the HGE had taken both the South German Federation and Carpathia in the south as well as Poland in the east with forces taking control of the Dutch Provinces by July. Of the major powers in Europe, the Angevin Empire was able to put a stop to the Imperial blitzkrieg in the west, stalling the advancing Imperial army in northern Lotharingia. Belorussian forces remained in position near their own borders with the HGE and occupied-Poland.

In Italy, the main strength of the Italian army remained along the border with the Commonwealth of Mezzogiorno, posturing for a new offensive, with naval forces effectively closing off the central parts of the Mediterranean. The Venetian council voted in favour of joining the central powers on the 27 July, though faced hostility from the office of the Doge. However, German forces began marching into Veneto at the passage of the council's vote, rendering the Doge's voice unheard.

And soon-after, on the 1 August, Field Marshal Philipp Eisenberg took control of the country from Doge Mikael Grazzo, assuming the position of governor of Veneto.

This is an amazing map.  This obviously takes a certain skill I am trying (and struggling) to master, myself.  As implied, I too am a digital and fictional cartographer, and have conjured scenarios similar to that of your work.  But I must ask, what sort of software do you use to make these maps?  Do you make all of the fonts/borders/details by hand or with a digital assist?

That's why the war started in the first place! De jure claims to Bavaria and all that lol only problem is that Bavaria was a part of the South German Fed. who consist of more than just Bavaria
